Works instantly to help remove deadly chlorine and chloramine from tap water. Locks up toxic ammonia produced by decomposing plants, algae, fish waste, dead fish, and uneaten food. Ammonia is converted to a non-toxic form to eliminate ammonia-related fish stress while biological filtration further breaks it down into nitrite and then nitrate. Safe for all fish, invertebrates, and plants and can be used with all medications including Methylene Blue, Malachite Green, and Acriflavine. Will not alter pH or deplete oxygen levels. Does not contain any copper or formaldehyde.

Each dose of Ammo Lock will detoxify 3.0 ppm of ammonia, 7.0 ppm of chlorine and 5.0 ppm of chloramine. For use is fresh or saltwater aquariums. 16 oz. treats 946 gallons.

Direction for Use:
Add 5 ml per 10 US gallons of aquarium water. Continue to add Ammo Lock every 2 days until ammonia is not detected. If after 7 days, ammonia is still present, perform a partial water change, service your biological filter and reduce feeding.

TIP: Ammo Lock does not remove ammonia; it converts it to a non-toxic form. After using Ammo Lock, your aquarium water will still test positive for ammonia even though it is in a non-toxic form which will be removed by the biological filter.

worked amazing
I had a huge ammonia spike (off the charts above 8 ppm!!!) and i used this every day until my ammonia naturally went down, and never lost a fish! I wouldn't recommend trying to duplicate this, but in an emergency, it worked for me!
